The Road to #AxelMania

Curtis Axel Has finally Found himself…. For Now.

Before the Royal Rumble, just after the break up of RybAxle, The Only Gimmick The Son of Curt Henning had was anonymous. (Meaning, we just didn’t even know if he was still on the roster or not) We would See him every now and then on SuperStars Jobbing out to struggling Mid Card guys but lets be real here, Who Watches SuperStars?

Then Mr. Anonymous Shows up to Philadelphia, PA, The site for this years Royal Rumble and Little did Axel nor anyone know, This Rumble will be an Out of Body Experience for the 3rd Generation Superstar. As the Fans of Philly were ready to see who was the Number 6 Entrant, The Buzzer sounds and Out comes Axel. I’m not going to go into detail about what happens next because we all know what happens next. I remember Looking on Twitter to see if i could find anything on the apparent riots from the Philly fans and I stumbled across a picture worth a thousand words. Curtis Axel: 2015 Royal Rumble Winner! The Fans of the Reality era just got real! Who Cares about the Riots Trending, Cutis Axel was Never Eliminated from the Royal Rumble Match. Ok, Even though by technicality, he really was eliminated Due to the fact that he didn’t make it to the ring by the next entrant, It was damn cool to see all the Marks standing behind this.

I knew IMMEDIETLY when I saw this Trending world wide right behind the #CancelWWENetwork, that this was something I hoped they ran with. Regardless If it was Axel Pushing this to creative or Creative saying “lets give this a try”, This New Gimmick has not only gotten over with the WWE Universe, But has brought Curtis Axel Back to life. From his Opener, “Don’t Change the Channel” to his New red and yellow #AxelMania Shirt (which looks so damn familar to me, I can’t put my finger on it Brother..), This has truly Been a Blessing in disguise for Axel and something the Fans seem to be getting behind.

Here is “The Blow off” Wrestling Definaition term” The End Of a Feud, Heel turn term: MY Final Words!

The WWE Likes to “trim the fat” off the roster every now and then to make salary space for other things. If Axel Didn’t take #AxelMania to where it is Now, I’m Sure sooner or Later the 3rd Generation superstar Would have been Future Endeavored. Curtis Axel is More over with the crowd than your WrestleMania Main Eventer  and I truly believe this is Only The beginning. Get ready for that Snowball affect, especially when Axel is standing in front of a Smart Mark City Crowd… All Hail Curtis Axel! Even though he will Lose his Match, the Fans will Stand up and Cheer this man. Why? Because its Entertaining. The Road to WrestleMania is soon to become the Road to #AxelMania.
